Thanks to the lovely people at Heartland Forum ...

here's a reply from founding band member Gary Marx to a Ghost Dance fan regards The Sisters play at Futurama 3 Festival 1981:

Was it really '81 ? Yes we played the Futurama Festival in Stafford - as to whether we were a last minute addition I couldn't say.

My memories are of playing the gig very early in the day and Andy walking onstage and yelling 'bring out your dead' to the few Bauhaus and Theatre of Hate fans scattered around the largely empty hall.

Now here's one for you trivia fans - the Sisters' line-up that day included a certain Dave Humphries on 2nd guitar (it was actually his last Sisters gig I think). Not a name I've seen mentioned too many

times in the Sisters' story.
